Problems solved by technology

First of all, boron tribromide is expensive, the preparation cost is high, and it is difficult to realize industrial production; secondly, the yield of hydrogen bromide demethylation is relatively low, and the operation is inconvenient
[0004] Aluminum trichloride is also a commonly used demethylation reagent. For example, Lange developed a method for removing o-hydroxyanisole, using aluminum trichloride-pyridine system to remove the methylation of vanillin in halogenated alkanes or aromatics. group (US3256336), but this method cannot be used for the demethylation reaction of o-vanillin (The Journal of Organic Chemistry 1962,27,2037-2039)
[0005] In addition, the reagent system of the combination of aluminum triiodide and various Lewis bases is also used to remove the methyl group of o-vanillin, such as CN106278825A discloses a method for cracking ether bonds with aluminum triiodide-pyridine, and CN106866377A discloses A method for cracking ether bonds with aluminum triiodide-carbodiimide is disclosed, and CN107473916 discloses a method for cracking ether bonds with aluminum triiodide-inorganic bases or metal oxides, although these three methods can be used to remove adjacent The methyl group of vanillin was used to prepare 2,3-dihydroxybenzaldehyde, but the yields of these three methods were not high

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing 2,3-dihydroxybenzaldehyde by removing methyl of o-vanillin. The method comprises the following steps: in an organic solvent, in the presence of aluminumtrichloride and an iodide, the o-vanillin is subjected to an ether bond cleavage reaction at temperature of -20 DEG C to reflux temperature to form the 2,3-dihydroxybenzaldehyde. The method disclosedby the invention has mild conditions, is simple to operate and has a high yield.

Description

Background technique [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of intermediate synthesis of medicines and chemical raw materials, in particular to a method for preparing 2,3-dihydroxybenzaldehyde by removing the methyl group of o-vanillin. Background technique [0002] 2,3-Dihydroxybenzaldehyde is an important chemical intermediate, such as a key intermediate 2,2-difluoro-1,3-benzodioxol that can be used to prepare the insecticide fludioxonil -4-formaldehyde (CN106699722), and an important raw material for the synthesis of 3'-formyl benzocrown intermediate 3'-formyl benzocrown derivatives (Journal of Zhengzhou Institute of Light Industry 1995, 10, 61-62). [0003] 2,3-Dihydroxybenzaldehyde can be obtained by demethylation of o-vanillin. For example, Potisek et al. reported a preparation of 2,3-dihydroxybenzaldehyde by demethylation of o-vanillin with boron tribromide in dichloromethane. -The method of dihydroxybenzaldehyde (Journal of the American Chemical Socie...
